Exploring infinite ways to create patterned textiles drives my fascination with weaving. I am drawn to intricate structural interlacements, but am thrilled when simple combinations of structure, color and texture yield beautiful, complex-looking woven designs. I insist my garments and accessories feel as luxurious as they look, which guides my fiber and technique choices. For me, learning is as exciting as creating, and sharing that learning by teaching others will be a primary focus of my continued development.
